Kat Butterfield
Managing Director / Producer
Lancashire born Kat worked for many years in PR and Marketing at Comic Relief before relentlessly badgering her way into the comedy team. After 7 years working in the charity sector, she realised that writing dick jokes would be a far nobler contribution to the world. If Dan is ‘big picture’, then she’s the ‘details’ gal. Nothing gets by her, and she wouldn’t dream of booking a mini break without an extensive deep dive on Trip Advisor. She was pleased to discover such skills are an asset to producing, rather than an unappealing personality trait. She has been to pilates twice and hopes that is enough to call it a hobby here. She loves 90s hip hop, quoting Mean Girls, making big plans, having bubble baths and making big plans in the bubble bath. Her favourite food is buffet.
Daniel Audritt
Managing Director / Producer
Dan is a ‘run before you can walk’ kinda guy, born in Swindon hospital car park because he couldn’t wait long enough to get through the door. He has a freaky encyclopaedic knowledge of comedy and is a passionate film and book nerd. He made his first independent film with the money he got from ripping his intestine in a car crash and he’s open to doing it again for more feature film funding. He loves learning and soaks up new information like an enthusiastic sponge. He has so many hobbies that he’s an absolute dream to buy presents for. He aspires to be Stanley Tucci both in wardrobe choices and pasta making prowess. He is full to the brim with creative ideas, energy and vision but can sometimes misspell his own name.
